import sys
import chilkat

http = chilkat.CkHttp()

url = "https://example.com/something"
contentType = "application/json"
json = chilkat.CkJsonObject()
json.LoadFile("C:/temp/requestBody.json")

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The PostJson3 method is deprecated:

# responseObj is a CkHttpResponse
responseObj = http.PostJson3(url,contentType,json)
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == False):
    print(http.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# ...
# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Do the equivalent using HttpJson.
# Your application creates a new, empty HttpResponse object which is passed 
# in the last argument and filled upon success.

responseOut = chilkat.CkHttpResponse()
success = http.HttpJson("POST",url,json,contentType,responseOut)
if (success == False):
    print(http.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()
